We are looking for a Data Engineer to join our Data Team and help build the backbone of our data-driven organisation. In this role, you will design, build, and maintain reliable and cost-efficient data pipelines and models that enable analysts and stakeholders to make better decisions.
About You
As part of the Data Engineering team, you will partner with data analysts, product teams, developers, and the Data Engineer to create stable, validated, and scalable data foundations. Your work will shift the company from fragile, top-down reporting views to robust, bottom-up data models that serve as the single source of truth.
Your work will shift the company from fragile, top-down reporting views to robust, bottom-up data models that serve as the single source of truth.
The Data Engineer will serve as the key partner to align on data modeling approaches, platform architecture, and standards. You will work closely with the Data Architect to ensure your pipelines and models are designed for long-term scalability, reusability, and alignment across domains.
Must Have Skills
- Strong SQL and data modeling experience (fact/dimension design, normalisation/denormalisation)
- Proficiency with at least one ETL/ELT framework (Airflow, dbt, etc.)
- Hands-on experience with cloud data warehouses (e.g., Redshift, BigQuery, Snowflake)
- Solid programming skills (Python, Scala, or similar)
- Understanding of data validation, testing, and monitoring
- Experience optimising warehouse queries and managing cost efficiency
- Familiarity with distributed systems and streaming pipelines (Kafka, Kinesis, Pub/Sub)
- Knowledge of CI/CD for data pipelines and infrastructure as code (Terraform)
- Exposure to data governance frameworks and metric standardisation
Data Infrastructure & Pipelines:
- Design, build, and maintain ETL/ELT pipelines for ingesting data from multiple systems into the warehouse
- Ensure high availability, data freshness, and reliability across all pipelines
- Implement monitoring, alerting, and logging for pipeline health
- Develop and maintain reusable data models for core business domains
- Work with data analysts and the Data Architect to translate business needs into stable, validated datasets
- Optimise queries and warehouse usage to control costs and improve performance
- Establish data validation and testing frameworks to ensure trust in data
- Partner with embedded data analysts to understand recurring needs and shift repetitive logic into production-grade models
- Provide technical support to analysts (SQL optimisation, schema understanding, data availability)
- Collaborate with the Data Architect on design patterns, data contracts, and standards
- Create handoffs so analysts can focus on business insights, while engineers ensure data quality and scalability
- Contribute to shared data definitions and documentation to ensure consistency across domains
- Support the Data Team in promoting best practices for modeling, version control, and deployment
- Define and enforce data contracts to prevent unexpected upstream changes from breaking pipelines
- Work with the Data Architect to maintain a consistent, organisation-wide data architecture
- Manage and improve the data platform stack (e.g., Dataform, Airflow, BigQuery, observability tools).
- Evaluate and introduce new technologies that improve scalability, performance, or cost efficiency.
- Build self-service capabilities that allow analysts and stakeholders to work with data more effectively.
- Data analysts spend more time delivering business insights and less time fixing broken models
- Core data sets (e.g., user behavior, finance, product usage) are trusted, stable, and cost-efficient
- The company moves from fragile, top-down reports to a scalable, bottom-up data foundation
- Stakeholders have reliable data to guide roadmaps and strategic decisions
- Data engineering practices are aligned with architectural standards set together with the Data Architect
